This is Part 1 of the assignment where students will plan how to test for their contaminant (create a flow chart) and do the test for their contaminant. They will then justify the identity of their contaminant. Students will also show all reaction with a balanced equation and total and net ionic equations.
Curriculum Expectations: 2.1 Use appropriate terminology related to aqueous solutions and solubility 2.4 Conduct an investigation to analyse qualitative and quantitative properties of solutions 2.5 Write balanced net ionic equations to represent precipitation and neutralization reactions 2.8 Conduct an investigation to determine the concentration of pollutants in their local treated drinking water and compare the results to commonly used guidelines and standards 3.4 Identify, using a solubility table, the formation of precipitates in aqueous solutions
